My computer continues it madness - the most recent perk is that the help bubbles are written with font size 1 or thereabouts - it's really just a few squirly lines and that is all
( Read more... )
I think my favorite ones -- and the ones I agree w/ the most -- are these:
**Anyone at all who says "What do you mean, you don't have a cell phone?"** A cell phone is not a requirement for a long, happy life. In fact, not having one might *increase* that life. I do have one, but hardly ever answer it. I listen to the message people leave ... and it drives everyone nuts. To which I say, "Simply b/c you call me does not automatically mean I drop everything in my life to answer."
**Dieticians/vegans. I can't possibly be expected to avoid fat, sugar and white bread plus meat, milk and eggs. I'm sure you manage to live off rye bread and vegetables-except-avocadoes but I sure as hell can't.** Agreed. I'm in college right now. I don't have *time* to manage this type of lifestyle. I barely have time to heat up the frozen dinners I'm no longer fond of. And once I'm out of college ... I still won't have time. I have better things to do than spend three hours out of my day making lunch. Or shopping for lunch.
I don't know why I just typed all of this to you. You clearly understand where I'm coming from, but rants don't usually work against the people you're ranting about. How unfortunate.

Oh, I didn't rant to change anything. I just ranted to rant. :-)
I find that once a person rants at me (not that you were ranting at me, you were just ranting and I read it), and it's a rant I agree w/, I go off on my own rant, which the first ranter agrees with. Then the rants take on a life of their own.

Is your icon Miranda Otto?

The "mine" is threefold: she says it about the ring, I say it about her, and the seagulls in Finding Nemo say it about everything. :-)

I love the seagulls in Finding Nemo!
